Reusable containers in, BYO mugs out during COVID dining services operations
Each year, millions of disposable paper and styrofoam containers end up in landfills after just one use. As part of Cornell Dining's Sustainability Action Plan, we're taking steps to reduce the use of single-use disposable containers, especially as takeout meals have become a vital part of staying safe this year. This fall, disposable takeout containers are available at all of our dining rooms, but all are encouraged to purchase a reusable takeout container (just $7.50) and bring it back, rinsed, on each visit to one of our residential dining rooms.
